Answer: a. the number of electron shells increases.

Explanation:

The elements in the vertical columns also called as groups are arranged in order of increasing atomic numbers and contain same valence electrons.

The electrons are added to new energy shells and the nuclear charge also increases due to increase in atomic number. But the effect of addition of new shells is more dominant.

As the shells increase, the atomic size increases and the valence shell moves farther from the nucleus , thus the tendency to lose electrons increase and thus the ionization energy which is the energy required to move the valence electron, decreases.

REY [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

According to this. Let's analize the possible products a, b and c.

First, the problem states that we have 2 eq. of base, For this case, let's assume it's KOH. Now, As we are doing a reaction with base, means that this reaction can only take places under conditions of SN2 and E2, a fast reaction that is taking place in only 1 step.

With this in mind, let's analyze product a. This states that it has two sp hybridized carbon, in other words, a triple bond between two carbons. So the product is with no doubt, an alkyne.

Product b has only one sp hybridized carbon, which means that this carbon should cannot be an alkyne because we need two carbon atoms. The only way to have one atom of C sp hybridized, is with two double bonds, so product b would have to a alkene with two double bonds.

Product c do not have sp hybridized carbon, therefore, it only has two double bonds in two different Carbon atoms, so it's another alkene with two double bonds, but in two different atoms of carbon.

Picture attached show the product a, b and c. Hope this can help

Which types of reactions would result in the formation of precipitate?

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

Double Displacement Reaction

Explanation:

A double displacement reaction is a type of chemical reaction in which the reactant ions exchange places to form new products. Usually, a double displacement reaction results in precipitate formation.

What is Waves? Please help will give brainliest

alekssr [168]

Answer:

Waves involve the transport of energy without the transport of matter. In conclusion, a wave can be described as a disturbance that travels through a medium, transporting energy from one location (its source) to another location without transporting matter.

hope this helps, I tried to give an easy definition :)

Calculate the % composition of the unknown liquid using your most precise result. It is a mixture of ethanol (D[ETOH] = 0.7890 g

Rufina [12.5K]

% composition of ethanol = 34.51%

% composition of water = 65.49%

<h3>What is density?</h3>

A material's density is defined as its mass per unit volume.

Given data:

The density of ethanol = 0.7890 g/mL

The density of water = 0.9982 g/mL

The density of mixture = 0.926 g/mL

Let the % composition of ethanol = x

Let the % composition of water = 100-x

Now density of the mixture

$\frac{Mass}{Volume}$

$Mass = \frac{percent \;of \;ethanol \;X \;density \;of \;ethanol \;+ \\ \;percent \;of \;water X \;density \;of \;water}{100}$

$0.926 = \frac{x X 0.7890 g/mL \;+ (100-x) X 0.9982 g/mL}{100}$

$x= 34.51$ %

Hence,

% composition of ethanol = 34.51%

% composition of water = 65.49%

Use wedge-bond perspective drawings (if necessary) to sketch the atom positions in a general molecule of formula (not shape clas

yuradex [85]

The atom positions in a general molecule of formula (not shape class) AXn that has shape square pyramidal at the corers of square and one at the above center of the square.

<h3>What is square pyramidal?</h3>

The square pyramidal is a shape geometry of the hybridization in which it consists of one lone pair and 5 bond pairs of electrons that repel each other and due to which the geometry changes from octahedral to square pyramidal.

As atoms are located at the four corners of the planer and one atom at the above center of the planner which is repelled by 4 atoms present at the corner of the planer.

Therefore, the atom positions in a general molecule of formula (not shape class) AXn that has a shape square pyramidal at the corners of the square and one at the above center of the square.
